In the summer time we
gather for a Montreal United Church and Neighbouring Cursillo Community
Family Camping Weekend, where friends are always welcome. The last
three camping weekends were held at
the Long
Sault Parkway -
McLaren Campground, located between Morrisburg and Cornwall,
Ontario.
You would love this campground. The beach is right there as well as a
big playing field for soccer, baseball, football or any other sport.
The park for the little ones is also close by and the facilities are
very clean.
This year our camping weekend was held Friday July 4 to Sunday July 6.
There weer 28-30 poeple. Some staying for the weekend, others
overnight, or some just the day. There was a wonderful sing-song
on Saturday night under the stars and with…of course SMORES
(yum-yum). Sunday they had a small worship service to give thanks for
the great weekend and many other Blessings, and spent the rest of the
day on the beach. It was a wonderful time for all! Again it was an amazing weekend of
community, fun, fellowship, music and lots of food!
Our 2007 family camping
weekend was held
Saturday July 21 and Sunday July 22, 2007. The weather was beautiful,
after
the pouring rain on Friday (that's why we started the camping only on
Saturday, not on Friday as we did in previous years). Twelve families came out for this wonderful weekend. While most were there both days,
some dropped in for one day only. In 2006 our camping weekend was held July
14-16, 2006; the one
before that July
29-31, 2005.
